    A Map of Toronto’s Cultural Facilities A Cultural Facilities Analysis 03.01.10 Prepared for: Rita Davies Managing Director of Culture Division of Economic Development, Culture and Tourism Prepared by: ERA Architects Inc. Urban Intelligence Inc. Cuesta Systems Inc. Executive Summary In 1998, seven municipalities, each with its own distinct cultural history and infrastructure, came together to form the new City of Toronto. The process of taking stock of the new city’s cultural facilities was noted as a priority soon after amalgamation and entrusted to the newly formed Culture Division. City Council on January 27, 2000, adopted the recommendations of the Policy and Finance Committee whereby the Commissioner of Economic Development, Culture and Tourism was requested to proceed with a Cultural Facilities Masterplan including needs assessment and business cases for new arts facilities, including the Oakwood - Vaughan Arts Centre, in future years. This report: > considers the City of Toronto’s role in supporting cultural facilities > documents all existing cultural facilities > provides an approach for assessing Toronto’s cultural health. Support for Toronto’s Cultural Facilities Through the Culture Division, the City of Toronto provides both direct and indirect support to cultural activities. Direct support consists of : > grants to individual artists and arts organizations > ongoing operating and capital support for City-owned and operated facilities. Indirect support consists of: > property tax exemptions > below-market rents on City-owned facilities > deployment of Section 37 development agreements. A Cultural Facilities Inventory A Cultural Facility Analysis presents and interprets data about Toronto’s cultural facilities that was collected by means of a GIS (Global Information System) database.

  • Mid-Life Shelf-Life, by R.M. Vaughan
    Lisa Steele Creative Director, Vtape 2 I am always looking for people who will immerse themselves in the rich, thick humus of the various pasts that inhabit the shelves at Vtape. In 2009, writer and artist RM Vaughan had an idea for a possible programme at Vtape. it would involve a lot of research, a lot of viewing. That summer he began a curatorial residency at Vtape, looking at work in our holdings. He viewed hundreds of titles – sometimes to the end but not always… He was searching for a programme – or rather, he was on a search for the shape of a programme, what it would look like. Thus began Mid-Life/Shelf Life, RM Vaughan’s rigourously structured (all in pairs, each programme proceeding two-by-two), yet deeply personal survey of video art seen through the lens of a patient searcher. In many ways, Richard Vaughan is an ideal writer/curator to undertake such a survey: he works actively to counter received knowledge, rejecting notions of “the canon” and other – externally imposed - pyramidal structures that dictate how “art” is to be absorbed and categorized. Thanks to the artists who made these works and to their curator. Richard Vaughan has presented us with a delightful flow through video art, part history (he did go back and back…) and part pure pleasure (it’s the humour especially here…), Mid-Life/Shelf Life opens new eyes on some real gems, illuminating them anew through the lens of the present. 3 BRENDA GOLDSTEIN 2007 title Horoscope language English running time 5:09 The future of film..

    http://www.sandiego-art.org Sweet Gongs Vibrating March 26 - May 29, 2016 Curated by Amanda Cachia, SDAI Curator-in-Residence Aaron McPeake, I Broke Her 78 Records (2007), bronze gong with clapper Cooper Baker (San Diego), Francisca Benitez (New York), Diane Borsato (Toronto), Stefani Byrd (San Diego), Kate Clark (San Diego), Raphaëlle de Groot (Montreal), Anne Gibbs (Cardiff), Brian Goeltzenleuchter & Anna van Suchtelen (San Diego), Wendy Jacob (Boston), Aaron McPeake (London), Darrin Martin (San Francisco), Christof Migone (Toronto), Tim Murray-Browne (London), Margaret Noble (San Diego), Carmen Papalia (Vancouver), Anthony Ptak (New York), Steve Roden (Los Angeles), Aren Skalman and artists from the Blind Community Center of San Diego (San Diego), and Funda Susamoglu (Ankara). CURATOR’S ESSAY Sweet Gongs Vibrating is a multimedia, multisensory exhibition that breaks with the ocularcentric by embracing myriad modes of perception. Imagine learning new information about a body, a material or a place through the sweet taste of ice-cream, or the gong of a sculpture, or the vibration in a wall. Through direct, embodied visitor contact, Sweet Gongs Vibrating aspires to activate the sensorial qualities of objects in order to illustrate alternative narratives regarding access, place and space. This exhibition includes the work of 20 local, national and international artists (one of which is a collaborative) who explore the multi-modal possibilities of sculpture, site-specific installation, video, and works on paper, constituting an exciting and accessible template for how one might glean untold accounts of everyday surroundings. Each artist in this project has been invited to either contribute extant or create new, site-specific work.

The centerpiece and eponymous work of this exhibition, is a newly commissioned experimental film installation that explores the history and legacy of the “animal trials” that took place in Medieval and Early Modern Europe, and its extended network of colonies. During this period, animals—and other non-humans such as insects and inanimate objects—were made culpable of trespass, theft or vandalism, and prosecuted for these crimes along with more serious accusations such as assault, rape and murder under the same criminal justice system that governed their human counterparts. Commissioned by Mercer Union, this new work is installed within a site-specific environment that conjures a medieval amphitheater, featuring materials representing the artists’ substantial research into this history and its resonance with contemporary conditions and practices of exacting power. The trials that underpin Bugs and Beasts Before the Law have been documented in the legal histories of Europe and researched extensively by American scholar, E.P. Evans. Taking its title from the first chapter in Evans’ most notable work on the subject, Bambitchell’s film investigates the histories of sodomy laws and perceptions of property, to draw attention to the vacillating target of beings subsumed by the criminal justice system.
